Courtney | Fan Relations did a wonderful job taking care of me with my order and followed-up afterward, to ensure everything was received properly and the quality is what is expected from these expensive items. Please reward Courtney for excellence in customer service!
I ordered 2 of the VT Metallica shirts for my wife back in August. I was told 3 weeks in only one was ready and I asked them to ship it and they sent the request to do that. As of today both items are now on back order until mid October. What's the point of preordering them. Don't you know how many you can sell. You took my money and now I am without product. Shady!
So i live in italy and am a huge 49ers fan (from canada), & fanatics international has been a game changer. Items are delivered fast, and i truly love the outfits. My fav swears ever (just super comfy)! I also am constantly getting compliments. Overall very happy with the fanatics vibe these days
they were ready to ship a new order instantly - then my order did come, just a few days later than expected. the customer service rep was keen to help though and made the experience better
The quality and price is great, plus awesome items like wear by EA.
I ordered an overpriced sweatshirt from this site. Initially, the site said i'd receive my order a lot sooner, then after paying it was going to take over a month to process and ship the order. Fanatics proceeded to email me non-stop, despite multiple attempts to unsubscribe. I'm afraid to block them as junk before receiving my order. Their processing and shipping is extremely slow. I wish I had ordered from a different company.
I apologize that you have not yet received your order. When reviewing your order, I am showing that this item is a special event item that ships 01/12/2022. Once the item ships, you will receive the shipping confirmation email with the tracking information. If you need further assistance, please send your order information to customerfirst@fanatics.com.

Purchased jersey with express delivery. It arrived late while I was outta town. Unable to give it to my son for the game. Impossible to find a Kyrie Irvin jersey in Charlotte, NC. Then I was charged to return it. Very sad!

Fanatics does not cater to female fans. They dont have many options for jerseys. And their shirts are cheaply made.
The only positive thing I can say, is that their customer service people really try to help. They've tried to help me find jerseys to no avail. I hope that Fanatics becomes more female friendly instead of just making unisex jerseys and shirts. Those do nothing to our bodies. They are chunky and more made to fit men.
They dont realize or dont care that there are female fans who want to wear their favorite team's jerseys, shirts, hats and jackets. But hey, if you are a female fan and want to sport your team's clothes they have options for bathing suits and panties. Good luck ladies! Hopefully you can find your favorite player's jersey somewhere. Just not at Fanatics

Purchased items from here before, items have been good quality. I am upset about paying an additional fee for 2 day shipping and not have the item delivered as promised. When I called customer service they had some girl that was trying to prove herself rather than actually hear the customers concern. I would not advise paying an additional fee for "2 day delivery". Still waiting on an item.
Hello Jasmine, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the package didn't ship as you expected. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, the order was placed on 1/9/2019. On our site it mentions that it takes one business day to prepare package to ship. The package was completed on 1/10/2019 and was picked later that day by FedEX. It would than take them two days to ship the package. Package was delivered as scheduled on 1/14/2019. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
"Hey, here is a really cool winter hat for 25$." Sweet, let me put my information in. "Oh, you live in Canada, well there is a 5 to 10 business days shipping fees which is 16.99." Can I just use normal snail mail and not pay so much, I found the same hat on another website and it was 16.99 for 2 business days. "Sorry, it's mandatory. As well, it will be 15.24 for customs and fees." What? How do you guys pay 15.24 on a 25 dollar hat? That's an outrageous percentage and I will be paying customs on it when I receive it here in Canada, and it won't be more than 15%. "No, sorry, that's how we gouge you, I mean, that's the way business is done here. So, that will be 57.23. How would you like to pay?"
Hello Dany, thank you for your feedback! We are so sorry to hear about this experience and would love to work with you to get this resolved.

Jasmine helped me get the info I requested regarding my return and a credit adjustment plus tax on another item. She followed up quickly and was able to understand why I was calling. I was looking to find out if all my refund(s) was processed since no follow up emails has been received by me.
Just wanted to say good job!
Hello Susan W. Thank you so much for your feedback! We are so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for taking the time to let us know! We truly value your business and we look forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon. Sincerely, Darren
My order shows shipped but if you go to the UPS Shipping lookup only a label has been made! There are scammers! I counted on this site for a present! They sell on Amazon and I ordered one shirt on there first and it was the size of a child instead of adult. Amazon told me to keep it and refunded me! I don't like the team so it did me no good especially since I don't have a child either. It was for an adult friend. I thought going through them directly would help. Their live help online is not live! Keeps telling me this order number and my email doesn't exist yet I have an email from them stating the order number! I will fight them tooth and nail to get my money back! They are a rip-off, don't buy from them! Look at my pics, says it was shipped on 7/17/23. Then it states it was shipped by UPS Innovations. Then the last picture shows you that UPS innovations is not even a a good way of shipping.

I spend somewhere between $600- $800 a year with you all. My last order was about $158 that was my first of this new sports season. I ordered a customized shirt and it was spelled wrong when I got it. They said my fault but I think I'd know how to spell my sons name. Last penny you'll get from me.
Hello Henry, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the your received a jersey that was misspelled. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Upon review, I was able to replicate the error in placing your order. I have entered a ticket into our Order Management Team in regards of a refund. Please allow them five to seven business days to respond to your request. If you have not received a response back then, you can reference the issue by 1828261. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Ordered a jersey on 12/16 with guaranteed delivery by 12/20. It is 12/29 today and shipment email says 1/4... absolute joke. ZERO customer service. There is no customer service email (huge red flag), the chat bot never has a live representative and calling in says 20-60min wait. I tried waiting and after two hours, no one answered. Company is a colossal joke. Glad the founder/CEO is a multi-billionaire, clearly puts no money into making it a functioning organization.
Tip for consumers:
do NOT buy from them, buy directly from teams or anyone else

I ordered a jersey for attending a Thursday night NFL game (Miami v Baltimore), paid extra for 1 day delivery, 1 wk later, no jersey. LaserShip, the local delivery company, had the Jersey for 4 days and failed to deliver it. Their ratings are extremely low for late deliveries. Why does Fanatics continue using this service? Poor management. Game Day Bust!
Tip for consumers:
If you don't need your order within a week or two, you may be OK. Although they offer expedited shipping, they fail to deliver, literally.

I ordered a item and was told it would deliver by 10/21/20
It has been delayed everyday with no reason
To top it off there is no direct way other than robot chat to voice my concerns and get answers the robot chat gives you nothing.
It's there anyway to contact them directly to obtain correct information?
Very frustrated and disappointed

My son received a gift card and every single time we have placed an order, it has been cancelled. "Customer service" says there is a block on the address, so we attempted to ship to an alternate address where the same thing happened. Zero interest from fanatics to deal with the issue or explain what is going on.
Hey Jenny,
We are truly sorry to hear about your experience with us and would love a chance to make this right. Please email me at customerfirst@fanatics.com with your order number and info, and I will be happy to do all I can to fix this. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience but look forward to hearing from you soon.

I was going to buy a Brady jersey but decided to be a little unique and opt for a Woodley. Fanatics carries Brady with correct font so I assumed my custom would be done the same way.
Nope. The custom Woodley is a fraction of the size of the official team font and name plate (not to mention the W itself isn't even close).
I've emailed several times and they just hit me with a blanketed "custom products are final sale".
It looks like I purchased this as a Chinese knockoff.
Hello Shawn, thank you for your feedback! I am very sorry that the shirt didn't come out exactly as pictured. Our number one concern is customer satisfaction. Because of the issue with the lining of the numbers, I can see how this would not be accurate. Please private message us if you would like for us to request an item check or I can offer a discount on your order. Once again, I apologize for any frustration this may have caused you. Sincerely, Julian
Received an Eagles "Welcome To Our Home" sign 4 my best friend 4 Christmas. Cant give it 2 her tho. Badly damaged! Looks like someone dragged it across concrete bc of all the scratches. Also looks like someone splattered paint all ovr it. Paid $35 for it! U'd think that for $35 u'd get an undamaged item. Shame on them! I give them a zero rating! & i recommend that u do NOT buy from them! They ruined my Christmas!

The worst Customer service. They sent me the wrong shirt. This was a very special gift from my 11 year old son to his Aunt. Why does this company send the wrong items to people constantly? Now waiting for directions on what to do. I explained I really need this in time for christmas and I was told they will open a ticket but not sure if it will be here. I will never order Christmas gifts from here again!

I had worn a 7 5/8 for years now. I purchased a SF Giants hat and it was extremely way too big. I was able to put a finger in between my head and the hat. I got it on sale so I won't be able to find it again for that cheap. Fanatics help team did not a damn thing to fix it. I will no longer be buying anything from that site. You think they would own up to their mistake but nope. $#*! that site
Tip for consumers:
Use at your own risk. Be prepared to wait months until you have what you want, cause you'll have to send it back

I have order quite a few items from Fanatics and they have always take. Care of me. My last order was a phone case with the logo of my favorite sport team. Unfortunately the logo wore off after just a month. I contacted them about the defective product and not only did they replace it but gave me some store credit as well. I was blown away by their quick response and the fact they really cared about keeping my business. They now have a customer for life!
Wajid, thank you for reaching out and we are grateful for the positive feedback! Thanks, Chastity
This company sends multiple emails, at least one a day. They say on their website that you can click and unsubscribe - bull $#*!. I had to call and got a right around until I could speak to someone who actually knew what they were talking about - had to open a ticket. Will be reporting the company. Normally I am not a whiny complainer but I hate spam like this. $#*! company.
Tip for consumers:
If you don't like spam emails in bulk, do not buy from them.
I placed an order for a cubs jersey for my son last night with this business. But after reading these reviews I am already regretting it. This is what he wants most for Christmas. Most of the reviews I have read indicate they have not received their order in a timely manner or at all. If I do not receive the jersey within the time frame that I am supposed to. I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau as well as my credit card company.
Hello Krista, we apologize that you are concerned by the feedback you have read. We understand your concern, and appreciate your comments. However, we hope that once we deliver your package within the expected time frame that you would be willing to adjust your feedback to reflect your true experience. We are working hard to make things right and raise our score across the board regarding these issues and we rely on true and accurate feedback from our Fans who have had a true negative (or positive) experience so that we can work to resolve them based on the situation. It is very difficult to manage this expectation if there are negative scores left before a poor experience is ever experienced. We thank you for taking the time to follow up and assure you that you have the right team working on your order at this time. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do. Sincerely, Sarah B.
Ordered an online gift certificate to be delivered via email to a work colleague. Ordered on 12-23 and it was not delivered. Had him check spam and junk folders, no go. Seriously? Sending an online gift code should be one of the easiest things for a company to do. I see the string of complaints about Fanatics inability to deliver physical packages on time, apparently this extends to cyber packages as well. Anyone considering doing business with Fanatics would be well advised to NOT do so.
Hello Eric. Thanks for your feedback. We apologize that the recipient did not receive the Gift Certificate. We have re-sent the certificate. If you should have any other issues, please do not hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, Karmen
I purchased an item that went on sale for half price 3 weeks later. They would not offer a price match on my item. So instead of offering a price match I had to ship back my original item, and repurchase the exact same item in order to get the sale price. What an asinine way to do business. I will never purchase from this company ever again.
Tip for consumers:
Never order from this company. They are a joke.

I am currently on chat trying to find the status of my return and there is absolutely no response. This is actually just the latest in a long line of TERRIBLE customer service events. I paid for 2 days shipping the week of Christmas; did not receive 2 day shipping. I had one item to return out of my order but the return label was so faded that the USPS could not scan it. I chatted with customer service on 4 separate occasions throughout January asking for either a new label or an address so I could ship the return on my own. I was told every time that a label had been mailed and I was given an estimated delivery date. As of today, I have never received this label. The company blatantly lied every time I contacted them- over a simple shipping label. I finally shipped the return and it has been delivered but I cannot get any response regarding status. I repeat... Do NOT order from this company!
Hello Tara,
